They were sworn into office on November 27, 2013 before Taguig City Mayor Ma. Laarni L. Cayetano and assumed the office on December 1, 2013 which was also the start of the 3rd Barangay Council of Pinagsama.
The third barangay council focuses on the upliftment of the barangay economy and of its populace as a result of inclusive governance. That includes partnering with the business community of McKinley Hill and Bonifacio Global City, providing livelihood programs, job opportunities, feeding program, youth and sports development projects, environmental cleanliness, supporting childhood education through Early Childhood Care and Development Centers and maintaining peace and order. Since June 2016, upon the assumption of Rodrigo Duterte as President of the Philippines, the Barangay Government of Pinagsama has been actively compliant to the President's campaign to fight against illegal drugs in the community. In December 2016, Taguig City Police awarded Barangay Pinagsama as one of the most outstanding barangays in relation to “Oplan Tokhang”.
Barangay Pinagsama is in strong partnership with the City Government of Taguig when it comes to infrastructure projects, social services and peace and order. Likewise, as part of the council's vision to include the business community in the development of our Barangay, they also created networks with the stakeholders of McKinley Hill and Bonifacio Global City for possible partnership projects such as Corporate-Social Responsibility (CSR) and Community Service Activities.
A livelihood training center was also established to empower our people through trainings on reducing garbage and producing reusable hand-made crafts from the recyclable materials.
Although Barangay Pinagsama faces a bright future for the rising businesses within its jurisdiction, some public service projects are hindered by its greatest present challenge which is the absence of Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA)- Barangay share of revenues from the national government. There are several reasons why Pinagsama has no IRA yet; First, Barangay Pinagsama is a newly created Barangay; second, Barangay Pinagsama is one of the barangays affected by the territorial dispute of Makati vs. Taguig thus a status quo order of the higher court pertaining the territorial dispute hampers the legislation for the creation of a law creating Barangay Pinagsama providing its share from the national revenue. For the time being, the Barangay Government's source of fund relies on its miscellaneous income on barangay business permits, barangay clearance, user charges on barangay facilities, city aid and share from the real property tax (RPT) from the city government.
As of 2018, the Barangay Government has a total of Two Hundred Seventy Eight (278) Employees composed of Brgy Officials, Employees & Admin Staffs, Zone Leaders, Purok Leaders, Drivers, Mediators, Lupong Tagapamayapa, Barangay Security Force, Traffic Enforcers, Peace Makers & Volunteers, Brgy. Health Workers, Day Care Teachers and Utility Personnel.
